I can say that if you like YA paranormal novels then I think you'll like mine. If someone wants to read a love story set in the 80's they definitely should read Three Daves. Your new books sounds intriguing. Can't wait to learn more about it!<br /><br />Congrats to Angela on her new book!<br /><br />Cherie Colyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13205065477147957455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3885739376242447475.post-20694607515232912762012-12-07T06:47:54.424-06:002012-12-07T06:47:54.424-06:00great post!! i like the sound of Chaste! a differe...great post!! i like the sound of Chaste! a different kind of daring love story!<br /><br />mmm cookies!<br />and a kindle! wow!Tara Tylerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07587802105993889515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3885739376242447475.post-80358355093675810092012-12-06T10:34:58.065-06:002012-12-06T10:34:58.065-06:00Hmm, your new book sounds just a tad like The Guar...Hmm, your new book sounds just a tad like The Guardian's Wildchild.

I do always find it to be a real compliment when I see someone recommend one of our books by saying "well if you liked that one, you should check out ...".

I cite user error with my new Macbook, duh!<br /><br />Would Jen DeLucy's Seers of Light maybe be comparable to your novel? Maybe not since that's more about ghosts.
